>>5422 It's hard to put into words, but stuff released in my lifetime reaching the age of 30 is an emotion I was not prepared for.

>>5422 Rei > Asuka

>>5422 Old

>>5438 And other jokes you can tell yourself

>>5466 No U.

Hope y'all don't mind a bit of Mari around here.

>>5551 This 60 year old hag is a traitor to everyone and anyone she ever met

Good thread. Upvoted.

For me it's KawoShin

It makes me feel like Evangelion is 30 years old, which means nothing.

>>5770 >Im the only one who thinks this franchise was mismanaged No, I think most people would agree with that after the rebuilds. >nerv theme park Like the facility where the evas and magi are? Or the big, open underground area?

>>5770 We have a bunch of people cosplaying as the characters and there are video game spinoffs.

>>5770 >Im the only one who thinks this franchise was mismanaged For me the music stopped after I realized all characters are built on top of freudian complexes. Though I don't regret watching.

>>5837 Sounds like it is over then.

>>5422 Good, because I get to see one of the most influential works in its time and without internet interference. >>5770 >mismanaged Hmm, I think that was because of gainax over-milking their holy cow. Gainax lived many years because of EVA exploitation. >>5788 >rebuilds I liked the rebuilds, in the end we get a better conclusion to several character stories, but thats is MY opinion. If you dont like it then stick with the original ending or EoE. I dont get it about people complaining about mismanaged IP's that killed their interest on the whole thing. (westerm media examples) I mean I dont love the whole terminator nor Robocop IP works, but I love T2 and The original Robocop movies, and I watch them at least once every year. Do I get excited with every new instance of those IP's? No, because I choose what to like and no greed, creative or ideological management fuck up will change that.

>>8458 >in the end we get a better conclusion to several character stories I don't really agree Misato got a rethread of her EoE arc with her sacrificing herself to give Shinji chance to save everyone else Gendo did get a big upgrade, which was nice because he wasn't fleshed out as much in the original apart from the birth of NERV episode, but the fact that he got a happy ending despite being an even bigger bastard than his NGE counterpart was a little weird Shinji's whole thing about crying being selfish is not something I personally agree with, but it's decently fleshed out But then every other character got basically fuck all Asuka had her whole reveal about being a clone (which was completely inconsequential) and an embarrassing sequence where she's half naked and barely even gets any lines, if at all, I don't even remember Rei got even less than that if you consider Ms. Lookalike a different character, which they are I don't really mind Kaworu not getting a lot of screen time since he was never meant to be a character that sticks around but the thing with him and Kaji was pretty much dumping an interesting concept on the viewer's lap then doing nothing with it, something that the rebuilds do a little too often Mari... where do you even begin with her? If you cut her out of the story you wouldn't even notice a change until the last 10 minutes of the last movie And then everyone else was a glorified background character

>>5770 could it have been? it doesn't really have crossover appeal outside of the demographic. like theme parks are family destinations primarily. they still mismanaged it inside the niche though, didn't leverage it for games the way they could've

>>5562 Hikari a cute. >>5770 A properly managed franchise would have more Hikari. But really it's not a franchise that could be expanded which is why everything past the original series +EOE feel like cheap cashgrabs.

I love Misato, and I wanted to post about her!

¡Feliz jueves!

>>9700 I love the laughing Misato gif. The whole scene with her teasing Shinji about liking Rei was very cute.

>>5422 I'm glad all of them ended up in a non-toxic relationship, specially Asuka ending up with the much older and mature Kensuke to temper. What a great couple alongside Mari and Shinji

The longer I've been in the Eva fandom the less respect I've had for Shinji. Does anyone else feel that way? I've gradually come to believe that maybe he really is pathetic, and being a faggot with Kaworu is no more than what he deserves.

>>9951 I imagine with age you've become unable to identify with him. It's the same with, though I wouldn't say I hate Shinji. I just prefer more proactive protagonists these days.

>>5703 Based

>>10030 Ah shit meant for >>5715

Best girl.

>>10040 Excellent post. Upvoted.

>>9913 You're in the minority then, because Khara had to clarify that none of the characters in the movie were romantically involved due to the backlash

>>10040 It's really unfair that they never showed Asuka's nipples in the rebuilds but they showed Rei's twice

>>10656 pussi

>>10656 you forgot the other image, I'll take care of it. serious part of the comment. is it possible in this board to open threads like in the old /e/ of 4chan I mean there is rule34 but it is all “mixed” at the moment (eastern stuff, western stuff, gay futanari hetero etc)

>>5422 I can (Not) move on

>>10656 Because Asuka is shit.

>>5770 The pachinko machines bring in far more of a profit than a theme park ever could.

>>5466 >>5520 You faggots have been doing this for almost 30 years. THIRTY. YEARS.

>>10656 They're barley there, but they're there.

>>15864 The storyboards originally showed more, in the actual scene you can even see the frame pan up when her nips would have entered the frame

>>12267 It could work.

>>5551 mari my beloved

For some reason, my imagination has always associated Asuka with tits and Rei with ass. I think Asuka gets the booby connection because of "Magma Diver." Thermal expansion, of course. And if Rei's her opposite then that means Rei's got to be more more bottom-heavy. Of course canonically they're both rather thin.

>>17928 Someone was reanimating this.

>>18168 >Asuka is for boobmen >Rei is for assmen I'm ok with this paradigm, mostly because it makes Reifags look more crude huehuehueh

>>5770 I think there are rumors of new video games possibly in the works? I dunno

>>18168 I thought Rei's breasts were bigger. Asuka's appear inconsistent across the series

>>5422 I routinely play older retro games. I feel nonplussed at the moment.

misato...

>>9966 It is interesting that he's so submissive and feminine in Episode 24. I guess you can say it's a subversion of a typical mecha protagonist, but how are we to take it, really?

>>5422 >Asuka is in her 30s now Grim.

>>30993 >30s ...

>>30993 She was a teenager in the mid 90's anon. She'd be in her mid 50's now.

>>31293 Sorry, it's late. Late 40's to early 50's.

>>30993 >30s

Asuka is literally a zoomer born in the year 2000 she just like me tho fr you morons. Eva takes place in 2015. She'd just be 25 now.

>>31293 the show is set in 2014 tho

>>31344 tomato tomato

>>30993 She was born in 2001 in the show.

>>30993 >2001 she is a Zoomer...

>>5703 They are better off as lesbians.

>>18168 4chan calls her Assuka sometimes. But I also prefer if Asuka was the boobs girl and Rei the butt girl. Both of their designs are inconsistent. I prefer it if botj have large boobw and butts but Asuka has the bigger boobas while Rei has the bigger butt.

How to give Shinji a heart attack

>>32370 fugg

>>5551 As long as you acknowledge that she's not canon

>>5422 Why is Asuka's butt censored? They showed Shinji's bare butt.

>>30993 Kaji in his 30s

>>5422 30 years of waifu war faggotry. And it seems like Asukafags won. You rarely see Reifags nowadays.

>>5715 This is technically bestiality
